I’m back! Return of the New Orleans Assassin…

Hello. Yes, I still kill people for a living. And first off, I just wanted to extend a hearty handshake, a nod of the head, I’d even be willing to give a little lead time to every French Quarter resident who voted down the French Quarter Security District.
